#boamarathon

A little over a year ago I made a promise to myself to run the Chicago Marathon after volunteering for it for several years. I told myself I'd run not only for myself, but to help others which lead me to run as part of #TeamDiabetes under the American Diabetes Association. I'm so proud of the all the hours of training and Miles I put in for my first marathon. So here's to always going for what you want and reaching your goals. You can catch me out there with Bid number 8805 this Sunday. /// #ChicagoMarathon #ChicagoMarathon2017 #FirstMarathon #MyLegsDoe #BoAMarathon #Running #RunForestRun #Goals #ADA #Marathon #Nike #NikeTrainingClub (at McCormick Place)

I could say running a marathon was easily one of the hardest things I've ever pushed myself to do. Even though I feel like my legs are about to fall off now, I'm so glad I disciplined myself to train over the last year. I’m glad that I was able to run as part of #TeamDiabetes and push myself to complete one of my bucket list goals. With a finishing time of 4 hours and 33 minutes. #chitown #marathontraining #marathon #chicagomarathon #chicagomarathon2017 #boamarathon #running #firstmarathon #firstmarathondone (at Buckingham Fountain)
